‘Winter’s Tale’ has the
dance you’d expect from a
holiday production, and
more.

Northwest School of Dance

40 performers
in ‘Winter’s
tale’

EAST BREMERTON —
“Winter’s Tale,” presented by
Northwest School of Dance,
offers families something
new in the way of a holiday
dance experience.

In this edition

This production, featuring
a cast of roughly 40
performers, features
everything you’d expect
from a holiday production
— beautiful costumes,
classical ballet, (as
well as tap, lyrical and
contemporary), entertaining
story lines set to captivating
music, and falling snow in
the final scene.
“Winter’s Tale,” by dance
studio owners Stephanie
Clarke and Jennifer PicartBranner, is loosely based
on “A Christmas Carol” with
a bit of “The 12 Days of
Christmas” added in Act 2.
The story follows the show’s
main character, Eloisa, on
a journey of discovery, to
learn the true joy of the
season.
“Winter’s Tale” will be
presented at the Bremerton
Community Theatre, 599
Lebo Blvd., Dec. 14 at 7
p.m., and Dec. 15 at 2 and
7 p.m. Tickets: Call (360)
509-7468, or purchase at
the door. Online: www.

indigenous nations or tribes
have a special relationship with
the United States.

Earlier indigenous leaders
signed treaties with the United
States, making available land
for non-Native settlement and
reserving for their descendants
land and certain rights. Article
IV of the U.S. Constitution
states “all treaties made, or

which shall be made, under the
authority of the United States,
shall be the supreme law of the
land; and the judges in every
state shall be bound thereby
…”

said he can’t
accept references
to Tribes as sovereign nations.

POULSBO — Phil and Andrea
Holt said they felt uneasy when
the rain fell after the Nov. 19 storm
caused a sewer main to overflow
and flood their basement for the
second time in five years.
It appears they and their neighbors can rest a little easier.
Poulsbo’s
Public
Works
Department dug a trench, reinforced with a berm, at the base of
the hill above Nordnes Street to
capture any future overflow from
the sewer main along Highway

8th Avenue.
“The level of community support
and labor and materials donated has
just been phenomenal,” Frederick
said.

POULSBO — Split into two
groups, the School Closure
Committee narrowed its closure
options to three schools each on
Tuesday.
The only school that made it
on both groups’ lists of possible
closures: Breidablik.

Organizations that
helped include the
Americana Music Fest,
Kiwanis Club, Lions
Club, Poulsbo Chamber
of Commerce, and local
churches, Frederick said.
In the last few months,
Frederick’s organization
has been hiring staff to run
the center and give mentorship — and sometimes
emotional support — to
at-risk youth.
In January, when the
Rotary Club of PoulsboNorth Kitsap and Coffee
Oasis formally proposed
the teen center to the
Poulsbo City Council,
Jason Thompkins spoke
about spending time on the
streets when he was 13.
Instead of taking him to jail
when he was picked up, a
Bremerton police officer
took him to Coffee Oasis.
Thompkins is now the
street and school outreach
coordinator. He’s joined
by a case worker, a job
training manager and a
coffee shop manager at the
Poulsbo center.
“Once we’re open, we’ll
just be going full speed
ahead,” Frederick said.
“The street and school
outreach person has been
in operation for a [few

Continued from page A2
months], making wonderful connections with
kids and the schools and
police.”
Between January and
October this year, 2,663
youths were contacted
through street and school
outreach in Kitsap County,
according to a Coffee
Oasis news release. The
coffee shops provide onthe-job training, with 74
youth enrolled.
Anyone is welcome to

The other schools on the
groups’ list for possible closure are Gordon, Pearson,
Suquamish and Vinland
elementary schools.
The next meeting is
scheduled for Dec. 18,
where the committee will
continue to narrow down
the options.
The goal of the committee is to make a closure
recommendation to the
North Kitsap School Board
by February. The school
board will make the final
decision and does not have
to follow the committee’s
recommendation.
The board’s goal is to
close a school starting in
the 2013-14 school year.

merchandise. Coffee Oasis
is a safe, warm haven for
youth with no other place
to go.
In the recreation area,
youth can play video
games, watch TV, play
board games, and work
on their homework or job
applications, with staff and
volunteers on-hand for
help. The facility will have
shower and laundry facilities, but is not an overnight
shelter.
(Coffee Oasis recently
celebrated the groundbreaking of the Birkenfeld
Oasis Teen Shelter, the
first homeless teen shelter
in Kitsap County.)

Frederick said Coffee
Oasis is still looking for
recreation-related donations, such as bean bag
chairs, board games,
computers and video game
systems. It also needs
volunteers to supervise
the center and go with an
outreach team to bring
resources to children and
teens on the street.
Renovation on the
center began in June.
The Poulsbo City Council
approved the ministry’s
lease of the former Public
Works building in March.
The three-year lease was
approved at $400 a month,
escalating to $425 by year

three, and not to exceed
$700 per month. The estimated fair-market value is
between $1,100 and $1,500
a month; the city’s subsidy
will come from the General
Fund.
“It’s a valuable organization in our community. It’s
going to help our kids,”
Mayor Becky Erickson
said at the time.
As with the other Coffee
Oasis locations, Frederick
expects coffee sales will
cover 50 percent of the
site’s operational budget;
25 percent will be covered
by donations and the other
25 percent by grants.
The open house will be

from 1-4 p.m. on Dec. 15,
with refreshments and a
chance to tour the facility
and meet the staff.
“The youth are looking
forward to having a place
to go, and I think the community is looking forward
to it being open too,” said
Meredith Green, president
of Rotary Club of PoulsboNorth Kitsap.
The club got the ball rolling on the center when it
donated $19,600 to Coffee
Oasis in 2011.
“It’s remarkable to see
what our community has
done and how it’s come
together.”

it would save the district
about $300,000 - $400,000
each year, because of the
reduction in staff, such as a
principal, and utilities. The
full savings would most
likely not be seen the first
year, because of moving
costs.
The committee narrowed
the closure options from the
district’s seven elementary
schools, to five, using “filters.” These filters factored
in such things as future
enrollment projection, conditions of buildings, cultural
impact and potential loss of
students to other districts.
The schools with the lowest
“scores” remained in the
pool for closure recommendations.
The following is the
enrollment as of October
2012, with the school’s total
capacity in parentheses:
Breidablik, 298 (450);

Gordon, 426 (551); Pearson,
284 (400); Suquamish, 413
(500); Vinland, 453 (625).
With current enrollment numbers, which have
decreased overall in the past
several years, the district
could close two elementary
schools with enough room
to house students in the
remaining five. The district
counted 2,653 elementary
students, with space for 873
more.
Breidablik and Pearson
have schools in other districts bordering them.
Chimacum is 14.6 miles
from the east end of the
Hood Canal Bridge, and is
the only non-NKSD school
bordering Breidablik.
Pearson is near four
Central Kitsap district
schools, which share neighborhoods on the two school
districts’ boundaries. In
Keyport, students travel

about 3.7 miles to Pearson,
but have the option to go
to Brownsville, 2.5 miles
away. Students living near
Madison Road travel about
4.2 miles to Pearson, with
the option to go 2 miles
to Brownsville. Students

on Avante Road travel 2.1
miles to Pearson, but are
0.8 miles from Emerald
Heights.
Students living at Bangor
can go to Pearson, or
CKSD’s Clear Creek or
Cougar Valley schools.

IN OUR OPINION

An educator in
need of education
“Tribal governments are sovereign governments. This means
that we have the authority as Indian peoples to control our own
destinies. The Tribe controls who are its citizens. We determine
what laws will control the interests of our community. Our
governments have jurisdiction over our own affairs. This is what
sovereignty means.” — W. Ron Allen, chairman, Jamestown
S’Klallam Tribe, in “The State of the Native Nations” (Oxford
University Press)
orth Kitsap School Board member Scott Henden asked
about the meaning of tribal sovereignty at the Nov. 8
school board meeting. It’s good to ask questions, to
seek to understand, particularly regarding such a complex
issue (see story, page A1).
But minutes after saying he needed to do some reading so he
could understand the topic, Henden made a significant political statement about the very topic he said he didn’t understand.
Henden opposed language in an interagency agreement
referring to the Suquamish Tribe as a “sovereign nation.”
“I have a problem understanding [in] any kind of English
where those words go together and it means what we have.
I don’t see them as a sovereign nation. Norway is a sovereign
nation,” he said. “I can’t agree that they’re a sovereign nation.
I’m not willing to do that.”
Even after being advised by board Chairman Dan Weedin
and Superintendent Patty Page that the Suquamish Tribe is,
indeed, considered a sovereign, or self-governing, nation by
the U.S., he refused to accept it.
“I cannot put those two words together by any kind of reasonable definition and say this fits,” he said of the words “sovereign nation.” “I mean, it doesn’t work for me.” He said it would
be against his morals “to say something is true and agree to it
in a contract, and know very well it’s not, for me.”
Whether Henden agrees with it or not, it is true.
In the U.S., there is city government, county government, state
government, tribal government, and federal government.
Tribal governments have a special relationship with the United
States arising from treaties, statutes, executive orders and their
historical relationship with the U.S.
Early indigenous leaders signed treaties with the United
States, making available land for non-Native settlement and
reserving for their descendants land and certain rights. Under
Article IV of the U.S. Constitution, treaties are “the law of the
land.” Those early indigenous leaders never gave up their
peoples’ right of self-government, or sovereignty, and today
those treaty signatories are recognized by the U.S. as sovereign, though domestic dependent, nations.
Tribal governments exercise authority and enforce laws on
their lands; exercise treaty rights within their historical territory; and provide public services for their citizens, among them

Don’t give schools to
for-profit companies
In response to Fred Springsteel’s
letter, “Professor is glad charter
schools were approved,” page A4,
Nov. 23 Herald:
If Dr. Springsteel believes that
the latest “education reform movement” — charter schools — will
improve education, he may not
know that the “National Association
of Charter School Authorizers
thinks that 900 to 1,300 of the
privately run and publicly financed
charter schools should close
because they are in the bottom 15
percent of public schools in their
states ...
“[T]he call for closing poor performers ... comes from advocates
such as the Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation and the Walton Family
Foundation.” (The Seattle Times,
Nov. 29).
While there are excellent charter schools and excellent public
schools, Springsteel cannot judge
our schools unless he actually
teaches 150 teenagers per day. His
one-on-one private tutoring work
for $30 to $40 an hour is not quite in
the same league with the work and
experience of our public teachers.
Can a publicly financed, privately
operated charter school select its
students, offer small classes, kick
out non-conforming teenagers and
reject special ed and ESL students?
That would not be fair. If, however,
charter schools have the same
obligations as public schools have,
they would just siphon money from
existing schools.
The League of Women Voters,
the North Kitsap School Board
and many other school boards
were wise to reject Initiative 1240.
Public education, healthcare and
Social Security should not be handed over to for-profit companies.

Write, shine and dispel
the darkness
Our Kitsap County Amnesty
group is familiar with the dark side
of the world. We spotlight global
human rights abuses and prisoners of conscience. Through letterwriting campaigns, we shine a light
on forgotten prisoners.
Amnesty’s letters have helped
free such activists as Nobel Prize
winner Aung San Suu Kyi of

Myanmar, with whom President
Obama recently met.
On Dec. 16, 2-4 p.m. at the
Winslow Co-Housing Common
Room, Bainbridge Island (353
Wallace Way NE), the general
public is invited to join us for our
third annual Write-a-thon, a national Amnesty campaign. There is no
simpler way to make a difference
in the world than to sit down and
write letters to officials to protest
human rights abuses or write to
neglected prisoners to encourage
their hearts.
Please join us this holiday season
and shine a light around the world.
You’ll learn about Amnesty’s work,
share holiday treats, make friends,
and write letters focused on 10
cases, from an unjustly imprisoned
human rights lawyer in China to
a harassed peaceful-protest leader
in Sudan. This year, Alive Church
in Poulsbo joins us with their own
writing event on the same day.
At 4:30 after the Bainbridge
Island event, participants are also
invited to “debrief” at Bainbridge

ing. And there are legal
departments at the Port
Gamble S’Klallam Tribe
and the Suquamish Tribe
that would, we are certain,
gladly explain tribal
sovereignty to any elected
official with whom they
interact.
But Henden didn’t just ask
the question. He made a
political statement about
a system of government,
and cited the federal
government’s definition
of “sovereign nation” as an
example of questionable
judgment.

We don’t expect school
board members to be
all-knowing; all public servants grow in knowledge
and experience as they do
the job. But it’s reasonable to expect school
board members to have
some basic knowledge
of their constituency; any
candidate for office in an
area with two reservations
should have some knowledge about the tribal
governments with which
he or she will interact.
It’s reasonable to expect
school board members to

know how to find information they need. There’s
a laptop right in front of
Henden at school board
meetings; he literally has a
world of knowledge at his
fingertips.
A reader wrote this
comment in response to
our online story: “... it is
actually the duty of public
officials to educate themselves on the critical issues
they need to understand
in order to be responsible
public officials.”
We agree. Henden needs
to do his homework.

reetings from your
Port of Poulsbo,
here at the beautiful
waterfront on Liberty Bay.
This holiday season is an
especially busy time for the
Port and the waterfront.
In recent weeks, through
the efforts of the Poulsbo
Police Department and the
state Department of Natural
Resources, several abandoned and derelict boats
have finally been removed
from Liberty Bay waters.
Three boats, including
the infamous Vision, now
reside at the Port’s F Dock,
awaiting final removal by
DNR.
On Dec. 1, Vikings again
landed at the Port for the
annual Jule Fest celebration. A great family event,
this waterfront program
included music, a huge bonfire, Scandinavian dancing,
and the arrival of St. Lucia
with her Viking escort.
Another do-not miss
event is the annual Lighted
Boat Parade, hosted by the
Poulsbo Yacht Club, Dec.
14. The Christmas flotilla

area that would be

It’s protected and safe...”
— Kelly Sullivan, executive director of
Tribal services

ing donations of labor and materials.
Here’s how the community is
engaged: The Tribe is providing the
site for the skatepark, located near
the Teekalet neighborhood. The
site was selected by the youth leadership group SWAG — S’Klallams
Working and Giving.
“It’s an unused, visible area that
would be accessible by most kids,”
Sullivan said. “It’s protected and
safe, and a place we can eventually develop into a larger recreation
site, with trails and a park. But
right now, our focus is just the
skatepark.”
After the site was selected,
Angelique Zaki of the foundation
visited Little Boston to help plan
the skatepark’s development.

krobertson@northkitsapherald.com

She connected the Tribe’s planning department with Grindline
Skateparks, a skatepark developer
in Seattle which has built more than
120 parks — from Okinawa, Japan,
to Orcas Island to Oxford, Miss.
Grindline is donating its design
services, Zaki said.
After Eglon Landscaping learned
of the project and met with foundation representatives, the company
donated its services and cleared
the park site.
S’Klallam Tribe planning director
Joe Sparr said it was “moving” to
see such generosity from a company that had, like so many local companies, been negatively affected by
the economic downturn. “They
came forward eagerly and they’re
talking about giving generously. It’s
touching to see that. It means a lot.
It’s clearly from the heart,” Sparr
said in the webisode.
Other project partners: Map Ltd.,
construction and civil engineers
of Silverdale, surveying services;
Krazan & Associates of Poulsbo,
soils testing; and Coho Concrete of
Kingston, concrete laying.

story of the ensuing campaign to
build the skatepark in Little Boston.
The webisode outlines how the
Sheckler Foundation is partnering
with the Port Gamble S’Klallam
Tribe and members of the community to build the skatepark.
Kelly Sullivan, the Tribe’s executive director of tribal services, said
the project will provide another
valuable recreation outlet for local
children.
“There’s no place for kids to
skate [on the reservation], so there
aren’t as many skaters as there can
be,” said. “We’re trying to increase
opportunities for activity, places to
be socially. We see kids skating on
the street and in parking lots. We
want to create a place for them to
learn it and master the skills.”
Some young people said the
skatepark will break down social
barriers; their non-Native friends
don’t visit the reservation, but they
said that will likely change when
the skatepark is built.

been providing various services

KINGSTON — It took
just a few more girls to try
out for the Kingston High
School wrestling team to
make history in Kitsap.
With at least seven
females wrestling with the
team this season, the program is the first in Kitsap
County to be allowed to create a female team.
Though the girls will
still need to wrestle boys
to meet WIAA tournament
requirements, Kingston
coach Bobby Reece said
the new team will create
more wrestling opportunities for female participants.
The more successful teams
in the state have girls teams,
he said.
“It shows we’re on the
right track,” Reece said.
With returners Lindsey
Barnhill, Sonja Redbird and
Ivy Rodolf, and new KHS
wrestlers, including Reece’s
daughter, Peyton, the team
is taking shape.
However, the team began
with nine females; two have
dropped out.
Compared to the rest of
the state, Kitsap’s female
wrestling program is growing much slower, Reece
said.
Despite not having had a
female team, female wrestlers in Kitsap have not
been without their success.
During the 2011-12 season, Lindsey Barnhill took
eighth in the 112-pound 2A
State bracket. It was her
first year wrestling.

LITTLE BOSTON — On a webisode produced by the Sheckler
Foundation, Port Gamble S’Klallam
Tribe
anthropologist
Josh
Wisniewski talks of looking out
his office window daily and seeing
young people riding skateboards,
inline skates or bikes “with no real
place to go to ride them and express
themselves in their creativity.”
That’s about to change. North
Kitsap’s newest skatepark, proposed on the Port Gamble S’Klallam
reservation, is taking shape with a
growing list of community supporters. Construction could begin in
spring 2013.
The proposed skatepark was
chosen last spring via social media
as the best of four projects nominated by the foundation, which
was founded by professional skateboarder Ryan Sheckler to assist
projects that benefit and enrich the
lives of children and injured athletes. The skatepark is the foundation’s first project.
Foundation representatives say
their way of accomplishing a project
is more about community empowerment than throwing money at it.
In its Be The Change campaign,
foundation representatives engage
community members to make the
project a reality — the idea being
it doesn’t take money to “be the
change.”
A social network was activated
and hundreds of people submitted
plans to be the change in their
communities. The foundation nominated four causes to be voted on by
the social network; the skatepark
received the most votes.

Those early indigenous
leaders never gave up their
peoples’ right of self-government and self-determination, or sovereignty, and
today’s indigenous nations
or tribes are recognized
by the U.S. as sovereign,
though domestic dependent, nations.
But North Kitsap School
Board member Scott
Henden said he can't accept
the Suquamish Tribe’s sovereignty. And his views contributed to the postponement Nov. 8 of an interagency agreement regarding the Suquamish Tribe’s
Chief Kitsap Academy, a
school that offers the district’s Native students culturally based classes for
which they can earn college credit.
The
agreement
is
between the Tribe, which
operates the school; the
school district, which shares
students and resources with
the academy; and Olympic
College, which awards
credit for classes taken.
Henden expressed concern about language in
the agreement referring to
Suquamish as a “sovereign
nation.” He also expressed
concern about a reference
to Suquamish’s “sovereign
immunity,” which relates

to a tribal government’s
immunity against many
lawsuits unless immunity
is waived by the Tribe or
Congress abrogates it.
Henden first asked for
a definition of sovereignty.
“I know that’s something
important to them. I’d like
to know what that means in
more detail … I’m not sure
I understand the words
they’re using. When they
talk about sovereignty, what
do they mean there? I really want to know, and what
are we teaching our kids?”
After some discussion, he
stated, “I need to do some
reading of my own. I guess
I want to understand the
issue better.” But then he
went on to detail his views
of sovereignty.
“I understand they are
federally recognized. I
understand the, at least in
part, the issue of Native
abuse over the years. I won’t
say I understand it totally by
any means, but at least in
part I understand some of
their issues,” Henden said.
“I have a problem understanding [in] any kind of
English where those words
go together and it means
what we have. I don’t see
them as a sovereign nation.
Norway is a sovereign
nation. And I don’t see why
we need to agree to that so
that we can have a contract
with them.
“If they are a sovereign

“I cannot put
those two words
together by any
kind of reasonable

me.”

“We’re talking
about what is law.”
— School board chairman
Dan Weedin, on the federal
government’s definition of
tribal sovereignty.

there the way it reads.”
Superintendent Patty
Page advised Henden,
“They are recognized as a
sovereign nation,” to which
Henden replied, “I cannot
put those two words together by any kind of reasonable definition and say this
fits. I mean, it doesn’t work
for me. So, if a part of this
thing is we have to include
that, can we just include
anything we want about
their abilities or past? This
isn’t part of this agreement.
This is politics. Let’s leave
the politics out of it. If we
want to provide a program
for Native kids to learn,
that’s great. I’m totally in
favor of that. I’m not in the
politics side.”
The board asked Page to
revisit the contract. Board
members wanted a change
to a severability clause to
allow either party to end
the contract with 60 days’
notice; removal of some
boilerplate language that
states the contract was
negotiated and signed on
the Port Madison Indian
Reservation; and to ask
the Suquamish Tribe if the
sovereign immunity clause

was necessary. The school
board was scheduled to
vote again on the contract
Thursday.
School board President
Dan Weedin said the issue
of sovereignty and sovereign immunity should not
be “a deal breaker,” noting
that the contract does not
cost the district money and
is “something that is good
for kids.”
Henden
responded,
“Here’s why it’s important
to me. They have these
things where they’ll put
one student in a classroom,
and they’ll change some
data and one student will
not know that everybody
else has agreed to agree to
something that is not true.
And in my mind, this statement is not true. And it
would be against my morals to say something is true
and agree to it in a contract,
and know very well it’s not,
for me.”
Weedin
defended
Suquamish’s sovereignty,
saying, “It is true, based
on what the federal government has said. The federal
government has acknowledged that the Suquamish
Tribe is a sovereign nation.
If you want to disagree with
what their definition is,
that���s fine, but the federal
government has stated this,
so I guess I’m thinking it’s
true.”
Henden: “The federal

Weedin: “That has nothing to do with them defining something. You can go
off on a whole lot of tangents on the government,
but what they’ve done is
they’ve defined it and said
it’s a sovereign nation, so
whether they spend money
that they don’t have has

Henden: “It might have
something to do with their

Weedin: “We’re not making judgments on their

Suquamish Chairman
Leonard Forsman said
Washington’s tribal governments have long been committed to curriculum that
educates students about
indigenous history, the treaties and the Constitution. In
2005, the state Legislature
approved HB 1495, which
strongly encourages school
districts to adopt and teach
tribal history and sovereignty in public schools.
“I think what is disconcerting to the Tribe is
that a simplistic approach
to describing tribal sovereignty was demonstrated,”
Forsman said of the Nov.
8 board meeting. “It’s a
complex issue. Trying to

Christmas Services
What is STILL?
STILL is a contemplative worship service focused on singing scriptures.
Repetition is used to help the scriptures go deeper into the heart, so that
deeper levels of meaning can be realized by each worshiper. STILL
Advent is centered around the major themes of Advent: the Old testament
prophesies of Jesus’ coming; the Gospel of Luke story of the annunciation
and visitation; the promise that Jesus will come again at the end of the
age.

STILL is written, composed and presented by the musicians of St Charles
Church. It is presented by candlelight, and includes segments of silence for
prayer and reflection.
STILL is an opportunity to be still before the Lord, to listen to the Holy
Spirit, and to rest in the love of Jesus.

Citing safety, county asks VFW and Food Bank to move
By KIPP ROBERTSON

Barb Fulton
stands in front
of Kingston’s
VFW Post 7329
where she runs
the Kingston
Food Bank.
Fulton’s father
built the structure originally
to house ambulances about 50
years ago.

krobertson@northkitsapherald.com

KINGSTON — Just the
thought of VFW Post 7329
closing stirs Barb Fulton’s
emotions.
The post in Kingston,
which also housed the
Faith Community Church
and Kingston Food Bank,
was built by Fulton’s father,
Ray, about 50 years ago.
The building was originally housed ambulances
next to the fire station —
now the Firehouse Theater
and Oak Table Cafe.
It later transformed into
Post 7329, adding in the
Faith Community Church
and one of two food banks
in Kingston.
But the Post building,
already vacated by the
church and currently being
vacated by VFW office, will
soon be empty.
The building is under
the stewardship of Kitsap
County’s
Parks
and
Recreation Department.
The concern lies within
the safety of the building, county commissioner
Robert Gelder said in voice
message November. A
fire safety inspection was
done earlier in the year,
and there is a significant
amount of work that needs
to be done.
Parks and Rec Director
James Dunwiddie said the
main problem stems from
severe water damage.
The VFW office, which
was housed in the Poulsbo
Armory before moving to
Kingston, is relocating to the
Poulsbo Son’s of Norway
lodge, Post Commander
Robert Loveland said. The
relocation is temporary,
unless it becomes a good fit
for the VFW.
The VFW office occupied
the building for about five to
six years. During that time,
Loveland said VFW members have tried to repair the
roof and its leaks.

“It’s bad,” Loveland said
of the condition of the building.
It would cost approximately $90,000 to renovate
the building, Dunwiddie
said. That $90,000 is money
Parks and Rec does not
have, he said.
The next step is for the
department to figure out
it’s options. Those options
include finding the $90,000
and occupants to help share
the costs of maintaining the
building and utilities, or
demolishing the building,
Dunwiddie said.
“It’s
under
both
extremes,”
Dunwiddie
said.
Though the Parks and
Rec department did contact the people using the
Post building, Dunwiddie
said there was never a specific date given in which the
occupants had to vacate. He
said the department advised
the occupants “they may
need to start looking for a
location.”
The Kingston Food Bank
will temporarily relocate
to the Windermere office
building, 26569 Lindvog
Road NE, after the holidays.
The food bank will pay for
electricity and phone service, but will not pay rent,
Fulton said. The owners of
the building have offered

space for two to three
months. If the food bank
needs some extra time to
find a more permanent
location, Fulton said there
is flexibility in the timeline.
However, if someone
wants to rent the office
space the food bank will
occupy with a long-term
lease, Fulton said the food
bank will have to vacate.
The space has not been
occupied for about five
years.
The current food bank
has a large pantry, three
freezers and tables that
display clothing and other
items. The space in the
Windermere
building
should be large enough for
the food in the pantry and
the freezers.
“It’s going to be a lot
smaller,” Fulton said. “But
we’ll make do.”
Fulton
is
thankful
for the generosity from
Windermere, which also
donated 50 turkeys for
Thanksgiving baskets this
year. The food bank provided 62 food baskets total.
Fulton and the food
bank volunteers are now
preparing the Christmas
boxes, which include gifts
for children and food. The
food donated includes rolls
from the Borrowed Kitchen
Bakery.

The food bank also
receives weekly donations
of Costco fruit and vegetables from Grub Hut owner
Sean Pickard.
Because patrons of the
food bank often walk to the
current downtown location, Fulton does not want
to see it move to far away.

Firehouse Theater, after

As for the Post itself,
Commander Loveland said
attendance has been down
recently. The move back
to Poulsbo, where more
members live, may improve
attendance.

that walk there may have

are also the homeless living
in the woods nearby that
visit the food bank as well,
Fulton said.
Fulton had to turn down
an offer for a space on
Highland Road NE, which
is off Highway 104 near
Wolfle Elementary, because
it lacked amenities and was
too far away from downtown Kingston.
The food bank has occupied its current space for
about 40 years.
If Windermere hadn’t
stepped up to help, however, Fulton said she was not
ready to quit. Fulton owns

BREMER TON
—
Walking the Rhododendron
Preserve trail down the valley, you can see young coho
salmon swimming in Lost
Creek and Wildcat Creek,
before they join up with an
important salmon habitat,
Chico Creek.
Chico Creek is one
of the most productive
salmon runs on the Kitsap
Peninsula, according to the
Suquamish Tribe, and the
Tribe isn’t leaving any of
the watershed’s protection
up to chance.
The
Mountaineers
Foundation, owners of the
preserve, recently partnered with the Suquamish
Tribe to purchase and permanently protect an additional 70 acres of upland,
forest habitat boarding the
Chico Creek watershed.
The purchase expands the
preserve to 386 acres.
“This is an important
step in handing off the

watershed to the next generation,” Forsman said in
an interview. “There is a
strong, wild natural run of
chum salmon in that creek.
It’s a relatively healthy
watershed, and we want to
keep it that way.”
Leaders from the Tribe,
the preserve, neighbor
Ueland Tree Farm, Puget
Sound Partnership and community members celebrated together Nov. 28, where
Suquamish
Chairman
Leonard Forsman presented a $255,405 grant for the
purchase. The Foundation
raised $60,000 to close the
option agreement with
Ueland Tree Farm.
The
Mountaineers
Foundation negotiated the
option to purchase the three
parcels from Ueland Tree
Farm when the tree farm
donated 100 acres of conservation easement to the
Foundation, according to a
Suquamish news release.
Scott Eby, president of the
Mountaineers Foundation

Board, said they decided to
buy some of those buffer
properties. The purchase
is the largest single addition to the preserve since its
inception in 1915.

“This is a really big thing
for us,” Eby said.
Eby said he had not
worked with the Tribe previous to this partnership,
and was moved by the

American College of Radiology Accredited &
Certified Pink Ribbon Facility

PORT ORCHARD —
Responding to the pleas of
many, the Kitsap County
Board of Commissioners
has removed specific references to the Port Gamble
Master Plan from the county’s Shoreline Management
Program update.
Commissioners and staff
heard from about 30 residents at an Oct. 29 public
hearing in Poulsbo, and
received written testimony,
expressing concern that
Olympic Property Group’s
proposed Port Gamble
Master Plan was being singled out for smaller shoreline buffers.
Following commissioners’ deliberation two weeks
ago, county staff was directed to remove Port Gamble
Master Plan language from
the Urban Conservancy
designation, county planner
Dave Greetham said.
County Commissioner
Rob Gelder said, “Listening
to the testimony, there was
a level of specificity that was
included that doesn't really
need to be there.” Instead,
for projects within shoreline areas, the draft SMP
allows for lot and building
size flexibility that will be
applicable to all those submitting a master plan to the
county.
The SMP will also retain
the current buffers for the
Urban Conservancy zone.
The previous draft seemed

to propose lowering the
shoreline buffer in Port
Gamble to 35 feet — in
other areas of the county
the buffer was upward of
100 feet — if the developer
proved the smaller buffer
was needed in order to
develop the whole site.
The changes will keep
the buffer — the distance
between development and
shoreline — at 50 feet for
all properties in Urban
Conservancy. If a developer

requests a smaller buffer, it
must show a net ecological
improvement to the area.
“The only reason there
was specific language
about Port Gamble was the
fact there was one owner
[OPG], and they’re planning to come in with a master plan for the redevelopment of that area,” Gelder
said. The board decided
“not to treat one LAMIRD
different than another.”
LAMIRD is the abbreviation for Limited Area
of More Intense Rural
Development.
The communities of
Suquamish and Manchester
are also zoned Urban
Conservancy.
OPG president Jon Rose
said his company is satisfied
with the proposed changes
because OPG agrees with

the 50-foot buffer. He said
OPG did not propose that
Port Gamble Master Plan
language be included in the
draft SMP; that language,
comprising a list of uses at
Port Gamble, was requested by the Department of
Ecology.
Greetham said Ecology
asked for the range of uses
OPG is proposing for Port
Gamble so Ecology staff
would know what shoreline
permits may be needed.
Greetham and Gelder
said approval of the SMP
would not have resulted in
approval of the Port Gamble
Master Plan; OPG must still

Lawrence said she heard
from many of the couples
that they had not gone to

that recognize gay marriage because Washington
is their home, and they
wanted to get married in
their home state.
“One gentleman said he

As of 3 p.m. Thursday, 25
couples receive marriage
licenses. The first weddings
will take place on Sunday.

this estate he first saw
someone building model
houses as a hobby.
Shappell studied horticulture at Iowa State
University — through a
loan offered by the estate
owner — but his life soon
took a different turn. After
graduating in 1953, he was
commissioned into the Air

his grandmother’s Iowa
cabin. He was born and
raised just outside the
river town of Dubuque,
Iowa, and spent much of
his childhood tending
the garden at his grandmother’s log cabin. Later,
he tended a garden on a
farming estate where his
father worked. It was on

its third year; it attracted
5,000 visitors last year.
Shappell, a longtime
horticulturist, used recycled woods and fabrics
in creating his intricate,
handcrafted villages.
For Shappell, horticulture and building model
houses are linked, dating
back to time he spent at

AINBRIDGE
ISLAND — The
three girls had
looks of wonder on their
faces as they followed the
trains around the miniature villages.
Two of them, sisters
from Poulsbo, crouched
down to check out the
lavishly decorated rooms
inside the houses. The
older sister said she had
a dollhouse at home but
it didn’t compare to these
houses. But their favorite
part was the train. The
tranquility of the holiday
scene was momentarily
broken by excited laughter.
This is why Dwight
Shappell recreated the
French villages in miniature form — “for no reason other than the sheer
joy of doing it, and watching the joy on people’s
faces.”
Over the years, the villages have brought joy
to thousands of people.
The model villages are
on exhibit until Dec. 31 in
Bloedel Reserve’s visitor
center — a grand, creamcolored manor house
decked out with festive
botanical arrangements
made from the reserve’s
collections. Model
trains, operated by Dave
Durfee of the Bremerton
Northern Model Railroad
Club, take visitors’ imaginations through the villages.
The Holiday Village is in

Force for two years; he
was stationed in Moulin,
France, where he met and
married his wife, Rolande.
While his time in
France inspired the model
homes and shops he
created over the next 40
years, he crafted them out
of materials handy to him
in the many places the
family lived.
After about six years
working as a florist,
Shappell was recalled into
the Air Force. He worked
as a squadron commander
and commissary and
exchange officer for the
next 18 years. He was
stationed in Wichita, Kan.,
where he built the first
village in 1963 as a holiday
display for his church’s

bazaar.
The homes, shops and
a church are built out of
wooden produce crates, a
typewriter box, recycled
plywood and other scrap
materials. Shappell taught
himself woodworking
and said he didn’t use any
power tools when assembling his models.
He built the second
village while stationed
in Honolulu, Hawaii. He
estimates he spent about
2,500 hours building the
second village, which is
larger than the first and
includes fully furnished
rooms with movable furniture, carpeting, framed
pictures, and upholstery
made by his wife. One
chest of drawers has a
mirror made from a World
War II GI shaving kit.
Some of his materials were given to him by
friends; a few pieces of
mini furniture were made
from an old koa wood
sports trophy he found.
“To throw that Hawaiian
koa away in a dump is
almost sacrilege,” he said.
Shappell retired as a
major in 1980 and moved

to Bainbridge Island,
where he worked again
as a florist for Town and
Country Nursery and
Florist. When the owner
moved the location in
1989, Shappell bought
the flower business from
the nursery and set up
Dwight’s Flowers on
Winslow Way. In 1994,
he built an impressively
large castle, named for his
late wife, for display in his

flower shop.
It was his lifelong goal
to own his own flower
shop, he said, and it is the
“beauty of everything” in
flowers that draws him to
the business.
He said he retired for
the second time in 1996,
and has since spent his
time as a docent and guide
at Bloedel, including hosting a Sunday evening talk.
And he’s built a few more

model houses.
In 2006, he crafted a
larger model of a French
shop that was built in 1410
and is still in use today. He
said he worked the hardest on its craftsmanship
because the shop is one of
two of his models that is
based on a real place.
Most recently, however, he deviated from
his European theme and
paid homage to his grand-

mother by recreating her
log cabin. Shappell has a
sharp attention to detail —
pasted along the slanted
ceilings in the model
cabin are copies of the
real newspapers that were
used for insulation, including his aunt’s wedding
announcement.
Now, at 81, he said he
wouldn’t rule out building
more models, but not for
sale. He has been asked in
the past to build tiny furniture and an entire model
home on commission, but
his price of $1 per working
hour was turned down;
a chest alone would have
cost $32.
New this year is an
antique doll display
by Dee DuMont, also
of Bainbridge Island.

DuMont’s European- and
American-made dolls
range from the 1870s
to 1959, many in their
original clothing, and her
collection includes a few of
her own childhood dolls.
She said, as a seamstress,
her dolls are “a hobby
made in heaven.”

uring the holiday
season, parties and
get-togethers are
common, and how to put
on a wine-tasting party is
a question that is posed to
us with regularity.
The simple answer is:
Invite some friends over,
then open several bottles.
While this works, a little
planning will make your
wine party successful.
Here are a few tips you
can use during the holiday
season or anytime of the
year.
n Use a theme: If you
and your friends are wine
aficionados or strive to be,
putting on theme-based
wine parties is a superb
way to learn about different wines in a hurry.
Here’s how it works: Set
a theme such as “Walla
Walla Valley Syrah” or
“North Willamette Pinot
Noir.”
Next, find up to a
dozen friends who want
to join you. Why a dozen?
Because you can get a
dozen two-ounce pours
out of a bottle of wine,
which is a pretty good
taste. Then assign each
friend to bring a bottle
of wine. They can decide

By ANDY PERDUE
and eric degerman

what to bring or you can
give them a list from
which to choose. When
everyone arrives, open the
bottles and enjoy. There
are any number of themes,
everything from specific
areas of Napa Valley to
wines of Israel.
n Make it blind: We
love tasting wines blind
because when you do not
know who made a wine,
that is a great equalizer.
You won’t be influenced
by price, pedigree or
how good looking the
winemaker is. The idea of
doing a blind tasting will
challenge you and your
friends to look at each
wine in a different light.
We recently put on a
Pinot Noir challenge, pitting the wines of Oregon
vs. California. We had people there who were quite
sure Oregon makes better
Pinot Noir, as well as fans
of California wines. We’ve
also put on a blind tasting
that included Syrahs from
Washington, California,

end the night on a high note.
Clipart.com
France and Australia. The
goal was less about how to
choose the best wine but
rather to understand the
differences between the
four regions.
n Go dark: Riedel, the
world-famous wine glass
producer, makes black
glasses and they are beautiful. The purpose is to tell
the difference between

white and red wines,
which doesn’t sound hard
until you try it.
Use a red that isn’t too
tannic (Cab Franc, for
example) and a white
that isn’t too aromatic
(Semillon, Viognier or
Chardonnay). Put them
side by side and let someone taste. Most people will
guess wrong as often as

equipped. You’ll want to
make sure you have at
least two glasses for each
guest. You know those
little charms that are sold
at winery tasting rooms?
They actually come in
handy at an event like this
to make sure everyone
keeps their stems straight.
If you’re serving white
wines, have some ice
buckets to keep them at
the proper temperature.
And include a few dump
buckets so nobody feels
compelled to drink everything in their glass. Don’t
forget to have plenty of
water and coffee all evening long.

they get it right.
One of our most memorable wine tastings was
with black glasses.
n Theme the food,
too: We conducted a dinner party with friends that
was built around Petite
Sirah, the bold wine found
primarily in California but
also is an up-and-comer in
Washington and Oregon.
Each couple was
assigned to make a dish
that would pair well with
Petite Sirah. It was a memorable event with delicious
food, wonderful wines and
great friends.
n End the night on a
high note: Have a treat
for your guests at the end.
This could be a special
older wine or a rare bottle
or even an ice wine. It will
help create a great memory of the evening.
n Have the right gear:
Regardless of the theme
of your wine party, make
sure you are properly

etables out and place into
a bowl.
Cut the turkey into
small bite pieces.
Take the mashed potatoes out of the refrigerator.
If you made fresh garlic
mashed potatoes, let them
cool before adding to the
pie. It they are a bit dry, no

roll out the dough into a
square shape. Use a pastry cutter, with the ruffle
edges, to cut the dough
into strips approximately 1
inch wide.
Begin to fill the bowls
with the layers — potatoes
on the bottom, turkey, frozen vegetables, then soup
on top. Add 2 - 3 strips
of dough, then weave in
2 more strips going the
other direction to make
a basket weave pattern.
There should be a little
space between the strips
to allow the pie to bubble
and cook.
If there is dough hanging over the sides cut it off
or tuck it under along the
edge of the dish to make
a thicker crust. Place the
pie dishes on a baking
sheet and cook for 25-30
minutes until the crust is
golden brown. Take out
of the oven and let cool
for a few minutes before
serving. Please be careful
because it will be steamy
and hot. Serve on a heat
safe trivet. Dive in!
Everyone I know loves
pot pies. I, on the other
hand, am NOT a fan. So

how was I going to make
something that I really
didn’t have a taste for or
liked? I just thought about
what I don’t like about
them — no flavor, gooey
and not in a good way. So I
did the reverse and decided to add tons of flavor to
the filling and the crust
and to make it flaky!
You could replace the
turkey with chicken as
well. This could also be
a vegetarian pot pie with
roasted vegetables.
I have to say that I am
now a fan of my GlutenFree Turkey Pot Pie. I
hope you are too.
Salud!
